-It was like a dam had burst. One tiny little pinprick of knowledge and suddenly it all came flooding from every direction. Her head probably would have been following the words that went back and forth, but she'd gotten stuck on something Tallulah had said, and she lifted her hand as if to say stop.- "What makes you think these two civilians in particular are the princess and her boyfriend?"
"I mean... it's remarkable how strong the magic seems to.. disguise us. I've met people who should have definately known who I was who don't even remotely recognize me." -She didn't understand it actually, she was just incredibly grateful for it.-
"Sooo... I hate to be the buzzkill, but I wouldn't write off that kind of assumption unless you've like.. seen them transform or found some secret diary admitting it. It's important to know for certain if they're still around and make sure they don't become enemies." -It wasn't really the best to call out the leader so blatantly, but it didn't seem to stop her. Aurora did however settle back to think on the question that'd been asked of her.
Maybe it was clearer to her because she had been asleep longer, or maybe it was just the mentioning of him that drew forth the memories once more. A dark room, two adult males and a bunch of senshi. And poison, and falling spikes of doom.
After a long moment she answered, slowly and thoughtfully.- "John... Little? No... but something that sounded like that."
"But he was definately wearing a cape and a strange outfit.. and he did say he was a magician." -He had been a strange and vibrant man, something one might have attributed to dream induced characters, but if they were real.. then he had probably been real too.- "He acted pretty darn strange.. more silly then anything. But he was pretty smart too. It was mostly because of him that we were able to open the doors. Maybe.. maybe because he had some idea of what was going on?"
"There was that other man too that seemed to know him. Perry I think it was?"

Tallulah sighed and scratched her head with a marker. Leave it to Aurora to put a hole in all her lovely conjectures. (Really, it had only been a matter of time, she'd done it six times already herself.) "I don't know," she said. "I mean, I've tried to piece the events of the day we all woke up together and the best guess I've got is that Corinna Grant smothered Dylan Rasmussen with a pillow and then killed herself and somehow it brought us all out of the coma that Dylan Rasmussen caused... but really it's just a guess. At any rate, people started waking up a few minutes after he flatlined."
"I've got a timeline," she added hopefully. "It isn't on the board but if you want to see it and check my math. And even if they aren't, we'd might as well assume they're out of the picture until we get some indication that they aren't."
She agreed in not thinking the man's name had been John Little, but couldn't quite remember otherwise - she'd ask Van about it later, maybe she'd have a better idea. In all honesty Tallulah's memories of that room were a bit hazy on account of having up and died shortly after, but the other girl's recollections were helping to make sense of her half-remembered dream.
"Perry Westerman," she snapped quickly. "Doc Wes. I was in his AP Bio class last year. He teaches at Meadowview - Did they seem like they'd known each other long?"
Maybe they'd just woken up in the same room, like herself and Tate. The more information she could pick up about it, the better.
"Um, Selena," she added, after pausing a moment to scribble more notes. "Where did you wind up in your dream?"

-Fairly mortified by the answer Aurora didn't bother asking Tallulah how she'd heard about the smothering incident. Probably the newspaper or something anyway while she'd still been asleep. A frown was obvious on her face as she thought about the grim event, but she nodded nonetheless.- "It seems like a fairly good assumption."
- Killing your own prince... she couldn't imagine it.
Aurora's head lifted with a surprised snap as she realized another question had been directed her way, thinking for a moment before she shrugged.- "They really did seem pretty close and familiar... but then I felt pretty protective of Super Van too and we'd just met."
"Have you thought about maybe trying to bring it up with your teacher?" -Ha.. easier said then done. Tallulah had been henshined up after all.- "Maybe under the guise of an interview or something?"

Tallulah shook her head. "No," she said, "I can't ask, it would be too suspicious - I'd know too much for someone who wasn't supposed to have been there. But."
She knew someone who could.
"Super Van can," she said, smiling. "I'll get her to do it."
She was confident that if they could ID the magician, they'd have a better grasp of what was going on. Was he another faction, or just a civilian playing dress up, same as Super Van?
"We'd better break it up, if no one has any further questions," she said, after a moment's pause. "I'll let you all know when the next meeting is - in the mean time, ask around and find out what you can about the parallels, about their intentions here, and whether their queen and their prince really are dead."
She tapped her pen against her knuckles and brightly asked, "Any closing thoughts?"
